As I write this I am waiting in anticipation of hearing how our Canterbury athletes performed in Ashburton yesterday at the Canterbury Athletic Championships. Updates to follow.
After 4 years+ and many successes in biking, running, and swimming, triathlon & duathlon competition, Jacob Turner has cracked it!
At last week's Canterbury Triathlon Jacob was placed second behind his mate Dominic. He is absolutely over the moon and this is what he said, "This is the one I've wanted the most". What a remarkable year for Jacob after being placed third in the U14 Mountain Biking Nationals, as well as all his other achievements in sport. Congratulations Jacob.
Coming in closely was newcomer, year 5 Kirtsy Watts who was placed 4th in the 9 girls. Kirtsy and family are passionate about triathlons and it shows in her placing and her enjoyment.
Ashton & Cohan finished highly in their big fields with 15th and 21st respectively.
In our School Tennis Championships:
Girls' Singles: Rosa Davidson, runner-up Molly Spark
Boys' Singles: Ed Davdison, runner-up Max Walsh

This Friday is our final night of Basketball. Thank you to all the people that make this possible: The NCJBA committee and their band of floor controllers and referees. What a mammoth job they have and what a great job they do.
Thank you to our coaches: Megan & Caitlin Penney, Mitchell Bailey, Rob Storer, Rosie O'Shea and team of Mikaela & Bailey , Kelly Smart, and our mini ball coach Nicky Simpson
